I trace the cracks within myself,
yet find none upon you—
Your skin, a barren canvas,
untouched by time or flaw,
While mine, a weathered map,
etched by stares that linger too long.
You label yourself two-faced,
but I only set eyes on one
side of the wall.
......
Love for you stings, sharp and unwanted—
not by your actions,
but the quiet, aching knowing
you’ll never be mine to hold.
Your absence echoes through the silence,
but when you return,
time holds its breath.
I replay our moments—
a broken record,
......
you tell me what I'm thinking, then argue that its wrong. but I need you to remind me what's right. I miss you because you told me to, I need you because I care. you let me get lost inside you; I'm swimming through your veins and drowning in your soul. I love you, so i'll ask you what to write-you tell me to put the pen down so you can show me how beautiful I am dressed in your skin. convince me I was empty before you took over my life. you built me with your bare hands and you're the glue that holds me together, so as long as I have you, I won't fall apart. you belong to noone, but can I belong to you? its all I ever wanted to be, you look so good on me. I promise i'll love you with every second of my life. you won my heart in a bet, but my soul's been yours forever. you need me to help you let me exist, and I need you to help me love you.
